Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022 - Read OP

LADbible and a creative agency by the name of Folk VML Dublin and VML Milan launched a satirical campaign `The Leprechaun Law’

Ginger Lad in front, James Doyle, is a big Irish influencer. I know of two more in that group but can't put a name to them This is exactly how agencies control Ireland's social media influencers; the establishment and vested interests narrative gets pushed and not through RTe as no one watches that anymore.

“Be a leprechaun, not a troll”…..“Spread pots of gold, not hate” the long March through the institutions has provided us with these lemmings

I remember when the E.U was just a trading bloc of countries.

A new national LGBTQ+ action plan released yesterday appears to commit the Government to enacting new hate crime and hate speech legislation.

The day before in the Irish Times - Women in Ireland are increasingly subjected to online hate and misogyny - National Women’s Council say 

The spread of far-right discourse and anti-migrant sentiment are of particular threat to women

Desparate

Of course, the NWCI are on the 'hate speech' bandwagon now, like the good little Gov lackie's they've shown themselves to be. They consider dissent to be impolite, and impoliteness is the worst imaginable crime among elitist white liberal women. Whatever shred of credibility they had left went out the window when they tried to delete themselves from the constitution. Ironic that NWCI is a major factor in the hate that has been generated towards women & girls. They led campaigns to destroy women's rights, right to facilities, sports etc shut down women speaking/protesting and campaigned against women in referendums

After EU's ultimatum, visa restrictions may be imposed on senior Coimisiún na Meán if they censor speech online that would be protected in the US.

This all came out last week last week when a delegation from the US State Department’s Bureau for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, led by a Senior Adviser at the Department of State Samuel D. Samson visited Dublin and met with Coimisiún na Meán to investigate the alleged threat posed to American commercial interests as it relates to regulation of social media platforms, outlining their concerns regarding the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA), which seeks to regulate so-called hate speech on social media platforms. The Senior Adviser stated that Coimisiún na Meán’s role in administering the EU’s DSA represents electoral interference into the US by an Irish regulator “acting under the auspices of the European Commission" and “partisan NGOs”. US officials expressed concern that Dublin “censorship” could spill into the US and be “weaponised by NGOs and hostile flagger networks.

”The American delegation expressed frustration in particular at a recent event hosted by the Media Commission with the NGO Hope and Courage Collective (taxpayer & Soros-funded) titled ‘Reporting The Far Right’s Tactics and Talking Points’. Such an event was considered politically charged and “inherently partisan in nature.”

U.S. State Department voices its support for Ireland against EU hate speech laws.

An exasperated senior Government figure who asked to remain anonymous told Gript that Government documents still discussing hate speech laws are focusing on “rubbish that doesn’t matter to ordinary people. Their comments follow the release of a new National LGBTIQ+ Inclusion Strategy, which seems to indicate that the Government is looking to strengthen the country’s controversial hate speech legislation.

No it was to your post. You said lies are harmful, they are not if you ignore them.

If only I had been around in the 1930s! I could have single-handedly averted the Nazi holocaust simply by simply ignoring everything the Nazis said.

Yeah, if my auntie had wheels, she’d be a wagon. Because lies were the real issue in WW2, what nonsense.

Well, the punitive terms of the treaty of Versailles, which led to chronic unemployment, uncontrolled inflation and widespread poverty, may have played a small part too…….

This was the original post:

"The state has also been told that it must implement legislation against the denial, condoning of and gross trivialisation of international crimes and the Holocaust."

what happened to just ignoring idiocies like holocaust deniers— why do we need to legislate against it?

True, but its also a lie to claim, as some do, that the earth is flat.

Most people ignore this and no harm is done.
